CPMK

Name:
    CPMK (LET)
Type:
    Let Subcommand
Purpose:
    Compute the Cpmk process capability index for a variable.
Description:
    This statistic computes the sample Cpmk process capability index of an industrial process and is defined as follows:

      \( C_{pmk} = \frac {\min(ENGUSL - \bar{x},\bar{x} - ENGLSL)} {3 \sqrt{s^{2} + (\bar{x} - TARGET)^{2}}} \)

    with TARGET, ENGLSL, ENGUSL and \( \bar{x} \) denoting the target engineering value, the lower engineering specification limit, the upper engineering specification limit and the sample mean, respectively. This capability index combines both precision and unbiasedness.

    The Cpmk statistic can have values from 0 to infinity with values between 0.5 and 1 being typical.

    The specification limits define the range within which a product is considered acceptable (values outside this range indicate that a product is defective).

Syntax:
    LET <par> = CPMK <y>             <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification>
    where <y> is the response variable;
                <par> is a parameter where the computed CPMK is stored;
    and where the <SUBSET/EXCEPT/FOR qualification> is optional.
Examples:
    LET A = CPMK Y1
    LET A = CPMK Y1 SUBSET TAG > 2
Note:
    The target and upper and lower specification limits must be specified by the user as follows:

      LET TARGET = <value>
      LET LSL = <value>
      LET USL = <value>
